I remember moving go California from 4-seasons and I was wearing T-shirt scarping morning ice from the windshield.
30 years later, couple years in Las Vegas and I need sweater for 75F.
Still remember No Dakota guy saying that 15F is his T-shirt day.
Anyway , good luck to guys who have to deal with negative temperatures.

Thank you,

It makes for good thick ice to drive our trucks on for fishing and we don't have any pesty bugs to put up with.

Positive take on a negative temp situation. Nice to hear the positive side of things. Good way to look at life's challenges.

It was upper 50s in the Seattle area today. Fortunately we just aren’t in the vortex.

Don't know how y'all take it.
But of course our summers are brutal.

from my friends that live an hour west of Detroit

Daughter dropped the 6 month old off here at 0430. She had sinus surgery scheduled at 0630. I took the little booger to the church day care at 0830. Then I pulled the eggplant plants up out of the garden. They had a few small ones on but I didn't tell the wife. Pulled 2 bell peppers up as well. Lengthened the raised bed by 3 feet of construction blocks and shoveled in some fresh dirt. Got too warm and had to take my hoodie off. Picked up some old rotten lumber I had holding the dirt pile together. Took a lunch break in the garage and drank a beer and ate a banana. Loaded the 5th wheel hitch in the truck. Went to the liquor store. Called it a day. Not sure what the temps were...high 50's?
Y'all hang in there.
diesel $2.52 at local Conoco.

71 in Death Valley right now. :C
